Alpinestars Pants For Dragracing?
Has anyone tried out these pants? The have a boot cut...might be good for dragracing?

Might be worth a try...I've found my Sidi drag boots will fit under my regular leathers...but it is tight.

Shane,
I would highy recommend a one-piece suite for your racing
purposes. For track days around here it's mendatory and after
the ton of spills I've witnessed- it is for a good reason.
I also believe that the one-piece suite will be lighter than the
jacket and pants combo. Just my $0.02
The obvious downside- mthe price tag.
BTW I had to leave work earlier than expected today and didn't
pick up the axle, but will tomorrow. Thanks again.

I have the Joe Rocket Pro Street pants and jacket. they zip together. fit over my boots easily. depending on how big you are, may have to order them larger than normal.

Do they flap in the wind at high speed, or pretty tight to the boot?
